[Trigger] Researchable Spawn Issue

[Fengik]

Im making a map where the player starts with a base that spawns basic soldiers then if you research an upgrade it would spawn archers aswell however when i try to do this nothing happens

• Unit - |c00800000Hellena|r 0002 <gen> Finishes an upgrade

• Train Archers Equal to (Researched tech-type)

• ( |c00800000Hellena|r 0002 <gen> is Dead) Equal to False

• Trigger - Turn on Spawning <gen>

• Trigger - Run Spawning <gen> (checking conditions)

Notice:Im using WEU

Sorry for incorrect writing, its just too annoying to write this in the WE lol

 

[Fengik]

im sorry but im not quite sure how to do all that i tried but nothing happened yet again(Yeeeah im pretty newbish)

 

[GhostWolf]

Well, make a If/Then/Else action (its about the tenth action) and then use a Boolean variable.

 

[Fengik]

in order to make the boolean archers=true i need to use an advanced trigger or atleast thats what i did..and vista seems to reject them causing WEU to crash is there any way around that?

 

[GhostWolf]

Eh ? what does this have to do with advanced actions ?

[Tip] Stay away from WEUs advanced actions... they are inefficient and leak.

Create a boolean (in the Variable Editor which is accessed by clicking on the yellow X in the trigger editor), now create the "Set variable" action which is the 5th action if im not wrong.

 

[Fengik]

allright i did everything this time and yet no archers appear im not sure what i am doing wrong

 

[GhostWolf]

Post your current trigger (don't post it in seperate trigger tags for every line... just click on the "white page" of your trigger, there click on the "Copy To Text", and then put it here like this: [trigger]Your Text[/trigger]).

 

[Fengik]

Allright this is what i have now

• Events
  • Unit - |c00800000Hellena|r 0002 <gen> Finishes an upgrade
• Actions
  • If (Train Archers Equal to (Researched tech-type)) then do (Set archers = True) else do (Do nothing)

• Events
  • Time - Every 20.00 seconds of game time
• Conditions
  • ( |c00800000Hellena|r 0002 <gen> is Dead) Equal to False
• Actions
  • If (archers Equal to True) then do (Unit - Create 1 Archer for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of Hellena <gen>) facing Default building facing (270.0) degrees) else do (Do nothing)

the (Do nothing) is there because you begin with a footman spawn

 

[GhostWolf]

Ok I found the mistake.
A Upgrade isn't a Research.

You will need to make it like this

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes research
  • Conditions
    • (Researched tech-type) Equal to someResearch
  • Actions
    • yourActions

Thank you it works now
